Who We Are
Our website, available at https://bestcoldairintakes.com is dedicated to safeguarding the privacy of our visitors. As part of our dedication, we gather specific data when visitors engage with our site.
Comments
With regards to comments, we collect the information provided in the comment form, which includes the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This data is utilized to assist in spam detection. Moreover, a hashed string derived from the visitor’s email address may be disclosed to the Gravatar service for verification purposes. Once a comment receives approval, the visitor’s profile picture may be publicly displayed alongside the comment.
Media
When uploading images to the website, we kindly ask visitors to avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS) in their uploads. This is because location data can be downloaded and extracted from the images on the website. We greatly appreciate your cooperation and understanding in this matter.
Cookies
For the convenience of our esteemed visitors, we provide the option to store their name, email address, and website information in cookies. These cookies will remain active for a duration of one year. In the event that the visitor logs into their account, we utilize temporary and long-lasting cookies to retain login information and screen display preferences. By selecting the “Remember Me” option, the visitor’s login will remain active for a period of two weeks. Additionally, cookies are saved when an article is edited or published, and they automatically expire after one day.
Incorporating content from external sources
The articles on our website may include embedded content from other websites, functioning as if the visitor had visited the third-party website. These websites may gather visitor data, employ cookies, integrate additional third-party tracking, and monitor visitor interaction with the embedded content, including logged-in status. If a visitor requests a password reset, their IP address will be included in the reset email. Regarding data retention, comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely to facilitate the automatic approval of follow-up comments, rather than holding them in a moderation queue. For registered users, their personal information is stored in their user profile, which they can view, edit, or delete at any time. Administrators also have access to this information. Visitors have the option to request an exported file of their personal data, including any data provided to us, or request the erasure of their personal data, with the exception of data that we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes. Additionally, visitor comments may undergo screening by an automated spam detection service.
